doom-eternal

[queen idol]

A good dose of adrenaline feels good

[slow sigil]

like sure it's a rather shitty game but dont gotta go so much overboard on it

[frail timber]

Fortnite without buliding is very fun to play imo

[signal perch]

hmmmp sucks!!!!!

[sonic lion]

fortnite kids are very weird
i had a friend who heard an 8 year old just say the n word

[signal perch]

lazy ass content creator with his piss videos

🤠👍

😟

[burnt moss]

Dark Lord is your equal. Marauder is wannabe.

[random vault]

best joke ive heard this whole week
¨who are funny people here? idk, maybe hmmmp and dead k3y¨

[patent stream]

Eh he’s not the equal either

[signal perch]

true!!!

[azure oriole]

Dark Lord used to be your equal.

[signal perch]

fuck hmmmp

[azure oriole]

Now he's more like an old guy past his prime who just needs to be put out of his misery.

[jaunty vapor]

The only one equal is Icon, the only one who has cheeks to match the Doom Slayer.

[frail timber]

He was just a false idol

[random vault]

wait a minute...

SELF LOATHING!!!?!?!?!

[signal perch]

Im not hmmmp

[sonic lion]

Both slayer and dark lord weakened (dark lord spent very long in a soul sphere and slayer was weakened by sleeping in a coffin for so long)
Slayer easily had beaten the dark lord because slayer woke up early

[brittle quest]

It isn't self loathing if you like degradation

[signal perch]

Obviously! 😟😟😟

[frail timber]

Who is hmmmp anyways?

[jaunty vapor]

Doom Eternal players hating themselves?

Unheard of

[signal perch]

yeah who is hmmmp haha

[azure oriole]

The Slayer has his powers. Davoth does not.

[signal perch]

😟😟

😃

[random vault]

h 🥺

[random vault]

kappa!!!!1 lol111!1!!!

[signal perch]

kapping

[sonic lion]

some dumb penguin youtuber who cant even reach 15k views anymore

[burnt moss]

Which makes me angry when he takes his sweet time with it

[azure oriole]

Oh yeah fucking. Absolutely

[burnt moss]

It says it in the cutscene though. “He’s you in their world” or something

[patent stream]

And?

The fight certainly doesn’t feel equal XD

I think gen 1 marauder put up a bigger fight

[azure oriole]

Dude fucking stands there like
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/930146039745376259/973954140894031902/unknown.png

[patent stream]

Also those maligog squares

[sonic lion]

slayer was already woken up
davoth just woke up and still felt sleepy

[azure oriole]

Davoth also Does Not Have His Powers

[sonic lion]

this is proof that hell doesent have coffee

[burnt moss]

You’re saying the Dark Lord is easy?

[patent stream]

Horribly so

Not only as a boss. But for the final boss of the final dlc expansion for a game? God yes

[azure oriole]

Yeah a lot of Doom fans feel Davoth's fight was too easy.

[sonic lion]

felt harder than the seraphin fight when i fought davoth for the first time

[azure oriole]

I like his boss for what it is, but I understand the criticism.

[patent stream]

I think it’s fun but god it’s easy

I wish he was twice as aggressive and opened up twice as often as a result

The fight drags for what it is

[burnt moss]

I think your skill is showing, Bob.

[patent stream]

Not really when the entire fight can be beaten by slightly side strafing and waiting for green

[strange gale]

so pepeja

[burnt moss]

Yeah but all your progress gets undone if you make a mistake.

[sonic lion]

i wish doom eternal had an option that allowed you to have it look like the camera is actually in a helmet, like when you first put on the helmet in doom 2016 and it shows your helmet stuff
it would take some screen space that i already dont look at much but it would look cool

[pseudo thistle]

yeah dark lord is easy as hell

[pseudo thistle]

that could be done in a mod

at least I think

[sonic lion]

im a console player

[pseudo thistle]

Well then sucks for you, game is dead

[jaunty vapor]

Metroid Prime mode

[sharp turret]

He's ez but also fucking annoying fr

Mfer never seems to go green even when I'm in melee range

[azure oriole]

I personally don't mind it because as I've said before I never saw Davoth's fight as meant to be the climax of Doom or anything.

I didn't expect, and don't want, a big badass awesome fight with Davoth turning into a big dragon or whatever. Though I agree the fight itself needed rebalancing.

[sharp turret]

Just stand there while he shuffles around, sword out

[sonic lion]

i dont play doom eternal on switch anymore but i wonder if eternal modding is possible on switch
switch modders have already done things like being able to turn on performance metrics and disabling dynamic resolution (of course to run at a stable frame rate they overclock it)

[burnt moss]

He was ok until he started summoning. And then that false ending…

[sharp turret]

Committing doggy genocide

[pseudo thistle]

but also like Hugo said, a different gameplay style where YOU have your own gundam would be ideal.

[sharp turret]

Tbh I like the summoning parts since it actually spices up the fight a little bit but like, you can yeet them all with a single hammer swing

[sonic lion]

depending on what version of doom eternal the switch version is based on i wonder if modding it could one day be possible

[strange gale]

scuffed titanfall boss

[sharp turret]

LOL

[burnt moss]

But then I have to wait for a refill before I can go do damage on him

[sharp turret]

But yeah I really just wish they would make davvothbattsck more often

[azure oriole]

Yeah I get what you mean.

[patent stream]

You would need a gen 1 switch

[sharp turret]

Just glory kill the zombies

[pseudo thistle]

still kinda wish they did something with the “sentinel hero” category in battlemode, it seemed like there would be more characters to play as against player demons

[azure oriole]

Hold on I think I said something about this in regards to Davoth and his fight.

[pseudo thistle]

technically you can mod any switch, it just costs like $150

[sharp turret]

I do like davvoths armor

[azure oriole]

To elaborate on this: I see TAG as an epilogue to Doom Eternal more than its own story. Looking at the story thematically, killing the Icon of Sin is still the climax. You've saved Earth. You've killed the Icon once and for all.

TAG 1 and 2, IMO, are a bit better as an epilogue and I like it that way. The way I see it - its plot is the Slayer going out of his way to tie up loose ends, not a frantic mission to save billions like in the base game.

In that regard, I see his fight with Davoth as something that isn't as grandiose as his fight with the Icon - moreso, it is the Slayer finally tying up this loose end. You know what I mean?

[burnt moss]

My play style doesn’t really allow that.

[patent stream]

Also while you can disable the limiters on the switch, it’s highly advised not too, since it’s not supposed to get hot to a certain point.

[sharp turret]

The fuck are you talking about

[sonic lion]

yeah
or you need to buy an expensive as hell mod chip or have a newer switch that was never updated past a specific version because there was a switch version for newer switches that has a vunerability but nobody has exploited it yet as far as i know

[sharp turret]

Run to the edge, shoot twice with heavy cannon

[slow sigil]

ngl but killing what is practically the devil doesnt really sound like "tying a loose end"

[azure oriole]

TLDR Davoth's fight is not the climax of Eternal. The fight with the Icon was more climactic and important, as it was supposed to be. Davoth's fight is simply the Slayer tying up loose ends, not the big badass climactic war or whatever fans really wanted.

[pseudo thistle]

But davoth is literally god

[sharp turret]

Glory kill, do twice boom you've got hammer

[pseudo thistle]

like cmon, that’s a bit bigger than a big deer titan

[pseudo thistle]

there was a climactic war though

[sonic lion]

the newer switches like the switch oled, lite, and the switch revision from past the second half of 2018 are actually capable of more power than the older switch is
with those systems hacked you can actually unlock those clock speeds

[jaunty vapor]

While I still don't necessarily like TAG1/2s story... This is a neat way of looking at it.

[burnt moss]

As an English grad I approve this literary analysis 👍

[sharp turret]

The fight with the icon would have been cooler if he let it stay on earth a bit longer to get more powerful lol

Get it? Cause the longer the icon remains on earth the more powerful it will become

[azure oriole]

Sure, but he also is relatively not very big of a threat throughout most of Doom's canon. He is essentially a man behind the curtain. He was never meant to be a more dangerous physical threat than the Icon of Sin. He's the mastermind.
Davoth is past his prime in TAG. He's not what he used to be. The Slayer doesn't see this as the climax of everything he's fought for. For him, this is just tying up loose ends and putting down a threat who needs to be put down.

[pseudo thistle]

yes. We get the joke.

[sharp turret]

So funny amirite?

[pseudo thistle]

Fair enough

[opal galleon]

It gave me a good chuckle.

[azure oriole]

Davoth's only real threat throughout the Doom canon is how far his influence is as the leader of Hell. What he represents is more dangerous than who he actually is, if that makes sense.

[pseudo thistle]

I’m gonna put an arrow in your knee

[sharp turret]

Lol the cake is a lie!

[burnt moss]

I mean I don’t soften my attack to intentionally not kill weak demons.

[sonic lion]

https://tenor.com/view/peter-parker-im-gonna-put-some-dirt-on-you-eye-mad-gif-15750742

[sharp turret]

Well maybe you should if you wanna get more glory kills to use more hammers

Zombies are walking speed boosts+hammer refills+health packs

[sonic lion]

"Zombies are walking speed boosts"
for people who actually use that blood fueled rune or whatever its called

[jaunty vapor]

I was thinking the same thing

[sharp turret]

Why would you not? It's fun and good

[burnt moss]

Joking aside, this would be a great idea. A timer starts as soon as he gets to earth, and his health is positively impacted as time goes on.

[opal galleon]

Rune copypasta?

[sonic lion]

other runes are better

[sharp turret]

Rune copypasta!

[azure oriole]

There is, but what I moreso mean is that fans feel that TAG's story could've been put towards an entire game's worth of story with a lot more grandiose and meat to it.
While I agree that would've been cool, I also think it would've been underwhelming anyway? Because TAG's plot doesn't really pertain to Earth, and IMO the Slayer is most interesting as a protector who is fighting for the innocent out of sheer rage and hatred towards the murder of innocents. A full TAG game would've been focused entirely on the Slayer's adventures through Hell and Urdak and whatnot, and I personally don't think a story completely focused on that would've been quite as interesting.

[pseudo thistle]

like what

[sharp turret]

Other than air control and equipment fiend what else is better?

[opal galleon]

"For survivability, it's unanimous that Air Control is first. Most are Equipment Fiend 2nd (the SSG Mastery works with the rune which pushes it over the edge of good), and 3rd choice is basically preference. Though I will say faster Savagery doesn't really help (less I frames from GKs). I highly recommend Dazed and Confused"

BloodShot9001

[azure forum]

Dazed and confused

[sharp turret]

That one's good too but go fast

[sonic lion]

that one that makes equipment regen faster when used to kill demons

[azure oriole]

In that regard, Eternal's climax is the fight against the Icon; it's more important than Davoth because it's more directly tied to the fight to save Earth. Whereas with Davoth, the grander conflict is more vague and uncentered. Does that make sense? I suck at wording this stuff.

[sonic lion]

dazed and confused

[sharp turret]

You have 3 rune slots

[pseudo thistle]

It’s up to preference, blood fueled is up there

[sharp turret]

You can run all of them, it's really just a choice between dazed and blood fuelled really

[pseudo thistle]

Chrono strike

[opal galleon]

[jaunty vapor]

Blood Fueled is ok, but generally superfluous as it doesn't give more speed than meathook or ballista boosts or wall dashes can give

[burnt moss]

Savagery. It prevents getting surrounded during a gk

[jaunty vapor]

So if you can't do those well/consistently Blood Fueled is good. Otherwise its meh (obviously it's not bad though)

[pseudo thistle]

but consider: I don’t want to do those sometimes

[pseudo thistle]

Not really

[sharp turret]

Enemy AI doesn't approach as fast while glory killing

[sonic lion]

i loved using that on blood maykrs

they became way easier

[opal galleon]

[azure forum]

One of my main things on dazed and C, is that it doesnt need something special to activate if you know what I mean just lile Equipment fienf and AC. It is always available as opposed to other runes where you have to works towards setting an scenario such as GK. That's my view.

[steel knoll]

Are the 2 dlcs any good for doom eternal?

[pseudo thistle]

I’m getting serious deja vu
I swear I’ve reacted to that same message before with the same emote

[sonic lion]

tag 1 was pretty good
just make sure to play it on nightmare difficulty

[azure oriole]

They're pretty great IMO.

[burnt moss]

You’ve made yourself very clear. Others aren’t seeing it from a storyline perspective

[opal galleon]

EC loop

[pseudo thistle]

I gtg

[sharp turret]

Playing without air control makes me want to hurt myself

[pseudo thistle]

i have stuff to do rn

[azure forum]

Imagine if we had "Rich get richer" in DE

[opal galleon]

Yo is that pizza that looks so good

[azure oriole]

It's Little Caesar's :^)

[sharp turret]

Should add the rune that lets you get bfg ammo from enemies to doom eternal

[opal galleon]

[azure forum]

It would make the unmaykr somehow usable

For memes of course

[sonic lion]

i want the doom slayer in mortal kombat
im still going to suck at the game but ill be sucking at the game with one of my favorite characters

[azure oriole]

I remember really wanting Doomguy in Smash back when they were doing DLC for that.

[azure forum]

And you know what's better guys with Ammo Boost... FA would return even more shells!!!!!!

[opal galleon]

[sonic lion]

and than they went and added sora, another generic sword character
funniest shit i ever seen

[sharp turret]

Add a rune that lets you use the unmaykr for no ammo cost

[azure oriole]

Sora is actually cool and I'm glad he's in. Some others, though, I took issue with.

[sonic lion]

20 fire emblem characters that all do the same thing

[azure oriole]

Generally I didn't feel Pyra/Mythra and Kazuya were interesting enough to warrant additions to the roster. Those were the two big ones I disliked.

Most of the others were pretty cool. I liked Byleth getting in, and I think more people would've liked him getting in if not for him being the 8th Fucking FE Character

[pseudo thistle]

Can’t believe we didn’t realize how unrealistic that was
Not because of violence or maturity, but because eternal came out after all characters were decided

[sonic lion]

i think doom slayer could possibly have a good chance of being in the next smash game
he was heavily requested in the last and made it as a mii costume
so maybe the next game could have him as a full character

[azure oriole]

Haha yeah.

Well I wanna specify, I wanted Doomguy in. The Marine. Not the Slayer. In a perfect world the Doom Marine would've gotten in Smash, with some inspiration from the modern games and some skins representing the Slayer.

[pseudo thistle]

Nah I’m hoping the next smash game is a full on reboot, still a platform fighter, but less characters and more unique and complex move sets, based on the source games

[azure oriole]

God it sucks how lame the movesets are for so many legacy characters in Ultimate

[pseudo thistle]

Dk spin and slap

[azure oriole]

Kirby's moveset deserves so much more than this.

[pseudo thistle]

that’s it

yeah

instead they just put his smash moveset in his main series games

[azure oriole]

And SAMUS

[sonic lion]

Didint one of the smash games have voicelines of snake calling otacon and asking him about diffrent characters and some of them were snake thirsting over samus

[pseudo thistle]

blegh

[azure oriole]

GOD. Samus' moveset in Ultimate fucking. SUCKS

[pseudo thistle]

Yeah brawl had that, I think all the codecs were ported to ultimate too

[azure oriole]

-No different Beams
-Controls like a feather with an iron tied to it
AWFUL.

[pseudo thistle]

What I mean by more complex move sets is like directly porting the Metroid controls with a couple adjustments to make it work in a platform fighter

[sonic lion]

im suprised that it didint lead to weird fanfics
or maybe i havent been on devientart enough

[azure oriole]

That and more focus on Nintendo's characters themselves. I think it's a shame there are so many unique (if not sometimes obscure) Nintendo characters like Dark Matter, Fawful, Dixie Kong, etc... that could fit the game really well and didn't ever get much of a chance.

I like a lot of the DLC picks but I dislike how heavily they focus on either 3rd party picks or Obligatory Main Character of New Game

[pseudo thistle]

well, it does make sense
Like adding some side character wouldn’t be as impactful

[burnt moss]

That would break the game

[azure oriole]

I agree but I also really like some of the more obscure picks.

[pseudo thistle]

people wanted geno so badly, but I’m glad he didn’t get in, because no one actually cares about him, they just want Nintendo to acknowledge super Mario rpg

[sonic lion]

imagine if someone made a mod of a smash game and made it m rated
like having mortal kombats fatalitys and having tons of goriness

childhood ruiner lol

[pseudo thistle]

nah

[sonic lion]

they could have added the skyrim character to smash
and allow you to customize it the same as you could in skyrim
that would be a kinda interesting dlc character

definitly would sell alot

[azure oriole]

Fawful would be an infinitely better Mario RPG pick.

[pseudo thistle]

Yeah people actually care about him

and the Mario and Luigi series kinda died out after he was gone

[sonic lion]

mario was from super mario rpg
and they added mario to smash ultimate

[azure oriole]

best Mario villain
heart and soul of the Mario and Luigi franchise
has lots of moveset potential
Yeah

Reminder that he is virtually the only character in the entire Mario franchise to show up in multiple games with a character arc that actually spans those games.

[safe perch]

for the cant perfect perfection milestone does 1 suit perk mean only one of those coin looking things or one of the abilities you can get with them?

[pseudo thistle]

One ability

I would recommend faster swapping

[safe perch]

k

[queen idol]

Feels good to have my SSG back

[crimson ocean]

i was watching a un speedrun and dude got chaingun after sgn? how?

[azure oriole]

Weapons can appear in later levels if you skip them

[crimson ocean]

why do you skip them in speedruns? or at least the chaingun

[azure oriole]

Since the chaingun drops you into that little basement area with the dread knight, it saves a few seconds by skipping it

[crimson ocean]

how much does intern get paid, if at all?

[azure oriole]

Interns don't usually get paid

[strange gale]

because top level runs don't really use shield as every time you use it equates to time loss that stacks up significantly during a run, and quickswaps massively outclass turret damage, for the most part only 100% categories get the gun

[crimson ocean]

40% of u.s. internships are unpaid so he could be paid

i’ll need to ping m0no for this

maybe

[azure oriole]

Do you want a serious answer or a silly answer?

[crimson ocean]

both. both is good.

[azure oriole]

Silly: They don't pay him for shit.
Serious: Requires a bit of explanation and speculation. While many internships are paid across the world IRL, we are currently not in an apocalyptic crisis. In Eternal, it's stated that most, if not all world governments have fallen, with only the Allied Nations remaining in name as the governing entity that runs the Armored Response Coalition alongside Samuel Hayden. Since there are no world governments and the remainder of humanity's population is delegated mostly to small splinter communities under the ARC's protection (most of them probably in Australia judging by the ingame map), I don't think currency is anyone's concern.
So the Intern is probably "paid", but the money really doesn't mean much by the time we get to Eternal.

[crimson ocean]

very cool

[green stone]

Doom eternal or elden ring which you guys prefer?

[azure oriole]

Never played Elden Ring

Can say I'd definitely prefer Eternal since Eternal lets me access the ~shocking~ in-game feature of PAUSING THE DAMN GAME.

[pseudo thistle]

god I hate when games don’t let you do that even when they’re singleplayer

[viral cosmos]

only downside is when you die you cant just pause and exit immediately

gotta wait until the animation ends

[azure oriole]

There is No Excuse for not allowing pausing in a singleplayer game. Fuckin dumb.

[viral cosmos]

hey you could make your own multiplayer game and have a pause feature exclusive to you

[azure oriole]

I don't care if the game's the greatest work of art in modern history, if you won't even let me Pause the Fucking Game then I'm not playing it.

[viral cosmos]

which just stops everyone

[azure oriole]

I don't care about multiplayer! I would play the game offline!

[viral cosmos]

yeah the multiplayer in doom

is not meant to be in doom

doom just isnt a competitive game

[slow sigil]

It's a singleplayer game, that's the problem with adding MP
Only adding coop would work

[azure oriole]

I'm confused as to what the conversation is about now.

[viral cosmos]

coop would be cool

would love to beat the campaign with someone

[slow sigil]

No idea i just glanced over

[crimson ocean]

you can pause by opening the map but not mid-combat

despite being a huge souls fan i didn’t like elden ring that much. i can’t rlly pinpoint it but playing the game just felt very unmotivating. i beat the game but i have no desire to explore the rest of the map, replay the game, or indulge in pvp

[azure oriole]

I only played DS 1 and only for like an hour. Once I realized you Can't Fucking Pause The Game all my motivation to play was sapped.

[lapis saddle]

I feel like that’s a weird dealbreaker for a game but okay

[crimson ocean]

now i don’t really understand that. not being able to pause is kinda bad but i never felt like i needed to. i could usually just sit at a bonfire or find a place where no enemies were around and be fine

[lapis saddle]

I feel like that’s a weird dealbreaker for a game but okay

[crimson ocean]

now i don’t really understand that. not being able to pause is kinda bad but i never felt like i needed to. i could usually just sit at a bonfire or find a place where no enemies were around and be fine

and yeah idk how you would lose motivation to play a game for smth like that. that’d be like if i entirely quit doom eternal entirely for the sole reason that there’s no “load from checkpoint” button

[azure oriole]

The thing is just, I'm not a kid anymore. I have a real life going on, I'm a social worker and I have kind of a busy life needing to do shit. If the game won't let me pick it up and put it down at will then I can't really dedicate myself to it.

[crimson ocean]

like it’s kinda annoying but it’s workaroundable

[lapis saddle]

Fair enough

[azure oriole]

Pausing is a very common sense function. If they can't include as simple a feature as pausing, then I dunno, I just can't really make the time to play it.

[crimson ocean]

ok so not only can you find a non-hostile area but you can quit the game entirely and when you load back in you’ll be in the exact same position you were when you quit. only time i can see this being an issue is during a boss fight, which, fair

[queen idol]

: "spawn & gets near to eat you"

: eat those grenades, it's good for your health.

[crimson ocean]

why does the cacodemon say that

[queen idol]

I mean a cacodemon objective is to eat you lol

[crimson ocean]

the quotes imply that the cacodemon is speaking 👍

[lapis saddle]

The main thing is that bonfires are absolute safe zones so if you can hold off a few minutes you’re good. Also the game is designed to not really recognize offline and online as separate things.

[crimson ocean]

i understand it’s a poor qol decision but i really don’t see the need to drop the game entirely because you can’t pause during a boss fight

honestly? there’s probably a mod for pausing. if there is, it’ll be on nexus

honestly? there’s probably a mod for pausing. if there is, it’ll be on nexus

[azure oriole]

I just don't have the dedication for that. I got a poor attention span and a busy life, and pausing is like... one of the first things you implement in a game. It's just not my thing I think.

I just don't have the dedication for that. I got a poor attention span and a busy life, and pausing is like... one of the first things you implement in a game. It's just not my thing I think.

If the game's design means you can't have basic QOL features that have existed since the 80s then I think the game's design just is not for me.

[lapis saddle]

Yeah that’s fair

[crimson ocean]

i think the game’s design can def allow for it

[azure oriole]

That being said I heard Bloodborne has that? Bloodborne looks cool. I may try that.

Sekiro also interested me when it came out bit I never got around to playing it.

[lapis saddle]

I don’t remember if you can pause in Bloodborne

[crimson ocean]

bloodborne has no pausing (and is a ps4 exclusive)
although you can semi-pause by pressing the home button to go to the playstation menu

[viral cosmos]

yo what the hell is that glowing blue coin doomguy throws at deag ranak's corpse

[crimson ocean]

also yeah sekiro has real pausing i’m fairly sure

[azure oriole]

Fuck Yes

[crimson ocean]

also it’s a great game (kicked my ass tho jfc)

every souls game has pausing if you play on a console that has software suspension 😼

[azure oriole]

It's representative of said Deag's bond with their guardians. The Deag were allowed to pick a Guardian that would allow their souls to remain guarded from death. Ranak chose the Doom Hunter. Grav chose the Gladiator.

[viral cosmos]

ah

[crimson ocean]

who was the first guy’s guardian

[azure oriole]

The Deag are effectively immortal until their Guardians are killed, hence why the Slayer couldn't just kill em ASAP.

[viral cosmos]

so basically he's like "hey bro take your bodyguard with you"

[azure oriole]

We don't know what Nilox' guardian was, only that it was killed before the events of Eternal. Fans have some ideas; I speculate it may have been a Titan that the Slayer killed with that ruined Atlan we see in the Fortress.

[crimson ocean]

i feel like titans aren’t “allowed” to be guardians. if they were i feel like all the deags would choose a titan because that’s an easy choice.

[azure oriole]

Not necessarily. Bar a special case or two, the Titans are idiots. They're incapable of being intelligent warriors; their only practical application in Hell warfare is as mounted slaves.

[crimson ocean]

did the cultist base priest guard his soul behind 3 whole doom hunters?

[azure oriole]

Unclear, but probably yeah.

[crimson ocean]

oh? what special case?

[azure oriole]

1. The Icon of Sin. It's animalistic in Eternal, but the Icon was implied to be an intelligent creature in Doom II. It's further implied that intelligence was lost after it was resurrected with the soul of Valen's son.
2. Possibly Maligog. Maligog is shown to sleep and is beckoned by the Trial's completion, and knows to do nothing more than grant access to the Sanctum. It may be more intelligent than the average Titan.

[glad owl]

is ancient gods part 1 and 2 worth it

[azure oriole]

Yes

[acoustic lark]

Yes

[azure oriole]

TAG1 and TAG2 both are excellent DLCs.

[lapis saddle]

I’m pretty sure TAG is also free now. At least on PS4 IDK about PC

[viral cosmos]

i literally got tag2 first

[acoustic lark]

Why would it be free?

[viral cosmos]

to this day i still dont have the first part

[glad owl]

both?

[acoustic lark]

Yes

[lapis saddle]

I remember seeing it listed as free on the Playstation store

[acoustic lark]

Maybe the free upgrade for the PS5

If you already own the PS4 DLC's

[crimson ocean]

what’s the slayer gate lore it makes no sense
you pull out a funny gib from a weird altar in a purple doggy room and then get teleported to a random arena?

[azure oriole]

It's just a gameplay thing. They have no relevance to the story.

[crimson ocean]

massive

watching a 100% un speedrun and dude is just getting random praetor suit points? how?

[viral cosmos]

has there been any news on a new doom game

[crimson ocean]

yeah doom eternal

[lapis saddle]

Mission challenges?

[viral cosmos]

i said new

[azure oriole]

A new game is 100% coming, yes. No official reveal though.

[crimson ocean]

doom: internal (bleeding)

[flint flame]

No, get tag 3 instead 👍

[viral cosmos]

we aint playing as doomguy in the next one for sure

[lapis saddle]

We know a new game is planned, but nothing about when and very little about what it is

[viral cosmos]

because he is dead

[acoustic lark]

DOOM: Intern-al

[lapis saddle]

My mistake

[flint flame]

He’s sleeping, not dead

[pseudo thistle]

Except that it will play like a truck rather than racecar. That is all

[acoustic lark]

He is not. Hugo confirmed it multiple times.

[lapis saddle]

The Slayer isn’t dead, just sealed away once more

[viral cosmos]

i dont wanna go back to uac

[flint flame]

Too bad, you’re going back to mars

[ocean bramble]

the memetonia experiment

[viral cosmos]

everywhere you go its uac

[lapis saddle]

Not in Hell. UAC is a series mainstay at this point

[crimson ocean]

were the maykrs named after the unmaykr, seeing as the weapon came before the race?

cus unmaykr was like doom 64 or smth, right?

[lapis saddle]

Development wise? Probably. Lore wise? Definitely not

Yeah the Unmaker is from Doom 64

[crimson ocean]

yeah i meant development wise

[viral cosmos]

is the berserk powerup basically temporary lore accurate doom slayer mode

[lapis saddle]

Quick reminder that Doom 64 is on Steam now

[azure oriole]

No; we're always playing as Lore Accurate Slayer.

[viral cosmos]

why do i kill a zombie with 100 punches then

[azure oriole]

Zombies are tough!

[lapis saddle]

Berzerk lets you play as Extra Angy Slayer

[crimson ocean]

zombie are weak to bullets, not blunt force

or some bs

[scenic egret]

Okay so i have some doubts about Khan Maykr

[crimson ocean]

wdym

[scenic egret]

I cannot lock on her with the super Shotgun when i Bring down the shield after phase 1

[viral cosmos]

but if he's so strong why cant he just rip them apart

[azure oriole]

Anyway
I can definitely tell you what the sequel will be like.

1. We will not be nearly as mobile or powerful as we are in Eternal. The Slayer has lost his powers.
2. It will most likely take place after a soft reboot or timeskip of some kind, judging by TAG2's ending.
3. The game will focus more on, presumably, gunplay and weight, judging by what Hugo said about a potential sequel.

[scenic egret]

The rocket Launcher also fails to lock on sometimes

[viral cosmos]

i absolutely dont want to go back into doom 2016 movement

no no no

[azure oriole]

1. You can, as glory kills!
2. The Slayer's strength comes from unending determination, persistence, and rage; not brute force.

[azure oriole]

I would expect movement more like the OG Doom games, albeit modernized.

Fast base movement, simpler movement mechanics. Ideally a sequel would focus on enemy complexity rather than player complexity.

[lapis saddle]

Right. I love how classic Doom gets interesting tactical play from such simple mechanics

[viral cosmos]

we goin back from where we started huh

[slow sigil]

What about a mix of both, not too much player stuff though but still

[azure oriole]

Yeah, exactly. Eternal's gameplay is very complex looking at what the player can do, but the AI themselves aren't the smartest in comparison.

So I expect a sequel would have more grounded player movement, but the enemies are much more advanced and smarter, with expanded-on concepts like weakpoints and the whole destructible enemies thing.

[viral cosmos]

dont take away my boosters please

[azure oriole]

I wanna remind you that Eternal's movement isn't even fast.

[lapis saddle]

Classic Doom also made heavy use of the ability to throw large numbers of demons at you at once.

[viral cosmos]

i dont care boosters are cool

[azure oriole]

Eternal's combat is fast. Its movement is not very fast, it just feels fast because the combat is incredibly fast-paced and focused on mobility.

[flint flame]

Boosters???

[azure oriole]

Your base movement is even slower than 2016's, in fact.

[viral cosmos]

dash

[slow sigil]

but you got more ways to boost it, and the very popular meathook

honestly i hope it stays this doom-quake hybrid at the least with the jumppads

[crimson ocean]

yeah one p shocking thing abt classic doom i noticed is that doomguy is FAST

[ember void]

Boosters.

[crimson ocean]

yeah one p shocking thing abt classic doom i noticed is that doomguy is FAST

[lapis saddle]

Yup

[crimson ocean]

like doomguy is absolutely zooming

[azure oriole]

Oh no yeah obviously, and as far as I'm concerned the meathook should stay forever.
What I moreso mean is Eternal's movement is made "fast" through the environment and your actions during combat rather than just a fast base movement.

[viral cosmos]

the doom 2016 parkour experience is not very good when you accidentally fall and only have 1 double jump, thus you cannot get back onto the surface cause one double jump is not enough

[lapis saddle]

I’d be happy to trade double jumping, dashes, meathook, etc for classic Doom base speed in the next Doom

[viral cosmos]

the doom 2016 parkour experience is not very good when you accidentally fall and only have 1 double jump, thus you cannot get back onto the surface cause one double jump is not enough

[slow sigil]

honestly every more then 1 double jump is bload

[azure oriole]

This is true of most boomer shooters, yeah. Movement was of the essence, because maps focused a lot on exploration and getting around.

[azure oriole]

This is true of most boomer shooters, yeah. Movement was of the essence, because maps focused a lot on exploration and getting around.

[lapis saddle]

Yup

[slow sigil]

i am fairly certain discord just kinda died

[azure oriole]

Yeah

[slow sigil]

i couldnt edit my message, mono doubled their message

[ocean bramble]

eternals movement feels odd
its not really something classic as you dont move that fast when normally walking

[azure oriole]

Fuck Discord Fuck Discord Fuck Discord Fuck Discord Fuck Discord

[lapis saddle]

Doom was especially fast since it throws 50+ guys at you often

[viral cosmos]

oh man not the discord employees eating food in the server room again

[azure oriole]

But yeah no that high movement is one of the reasons why you see so many boomer shooter modern FPS games today.

[crimson ocean]

are there any movement shooters that is just rockets and rocket jumping only

[azure oriole]

Dusk, Amid Evil, Ultrakill, HROT, Ion Fury, Forgive Me Father, Nightmare Reaper, Prodeus, Project Warlock, etc... people yearn for this kinda gameplay because it is fucking awesome.

[pseudo thistle]

That would be a neat idea, the only way to move is by rocket jumping
You would have to design the maps in very specific ways and add more mechanics to deal damage

[azure oriole]

Oh yeah and Postal: Brain Damaged

[ornate reef]

Anyone managed to get a Screeched/Possessed Demonic Trooper?

[crimson ocean]

i mean i was thinking the levels are designed around rocket jumping but you can still walk and normal jump

[pseudo thistle]

But like

[lapis saddle]

I fully understand why they can’t do it, but I’d love to see a future Doom game that uses Gamecube era graphics so it can do slaughter map bullshit

[viral cosmos]

does ghostrunner count

[pseudo thistle]

it would be a neat mode

[crimson ocean]

i thought of it yesterday and it’s the only thing that makes me slightly motivated to learn programming

[azure oriole]

Kinda? I bet it's inspired by that stuff, but it's very different from them.

[slow sigil]

same but honestly i would love a game like that with something like eternal's complexity and AAA budget

[viral cosmos]

it is about finding a path since every enemy oneshots you in that game

[azure oriole]

Yeah I don't blame you.

[viral cosmos]

but it's pretty fast

[ocean bramble]

or just a simple game with beeeeg wide open maps where you have crazy high blast jumping and ridiculous running speed

[slow sigil]

open world fps is... not at all what i want for something wanting to also be close to boomer shooters

metroidvania like map is something that could be very cool however, and quite unique

[ocean bramble]

i dint have open world in mind but arena sections that are really massive

[crimson ocean]

metroidvania fps? i think a metroid prime mkb mod would work for that

[ocean bramble]

allowing for both insane vertical and horizontal mobility

[viral cosmos]

like the size of 4 doom eternal arenas combined into one?

[ocean bramble]

maybe a little more

[viral cosmos]

9

[ocean bramble]

dun quite know

[slow sigil]

like a battlemode map

[toxic crag]

Hey they solved the bug from the achievement of taras nabad?

[ocean bramble]

those are bit too cramped for what i have in mind

its a huge box and everything around you looks big but there isnt that many platforms

[azure oriole]

I just started playing RoE and the demon artifact is uncannily similar to Betrayer's son's heart...

Probably a coincidence

[azure oriole]

Reminder that my Eternal sequel sidegame concept is the coolest thing I have written probably and is a Metroidvania

[slow sigil]

nice

honestly i feel like there is a huge gap in FPS metroidvanias

[crimson ocean]

which crystal upgrades do you guys go for first? i usually alternate between health and ammo and do armor last

[viral cosmos]

i do whatever one

only thing that matters is me collecting every of them

[slow sigil]

focus on the actual crystal upgrades first, like longer flame time and such

[azure oriole]

I pick based on the perks I want, starting from loot magnet

[ocean bramble]

for others it would get boring but for me there are hundreds of enemies going at you at once that you get to blow up or demolish some other satisfying ways

[crimson ocean]

well which upgrades do you go for first?

[slow sigil]

i forgot which ones exactly it was but i remember bottom left, top left, and idk for sure furthermore

[crimson ocean]

is there a copypasta for it like the runes

[slow sigil]

dont think so

cause eventually you get them all so it's not as much of a choice

[viral cosmos]

it is so satisfying to freeze, burn, and headshot a crowd of demons with that one pb master upgrade installed

you get lots of health and ammo

not ammo armor

yeah

[crimson ocean]

why is the soul factory cage sequence still bugged

the slayer’s head is popping out of the top

[slender bough]

hello everyone!

[crimson ocean]

hello

[slender bough]

last time ive been in this server since 6 months

[viral cosmos]

bro on that level after i defeated kalibas i literally didnt understand what to do for the next 30 minutes

i dont know how i didnt see that green indicator on his brain

[crimson ocean]

is dashing into enemies with the shield worth it in terms of dps

[fallen heart]

falters most demons

kills most fodder

[strange gale]

200 damage per bash + free hard falters on heavies and anything below so i'd say yes, even without shield raze

[slow sigil]

it does more DPS then mobile turret i thought, but it's just about worth it, especially because of the protection

[ocean bramble]

in eternal i get a weird mix of forced yet restricted gameplay

[crimson ocean]

can someone explain what shield raze is all i ever got was “it’s complicated but it one shots spirited tyrants”

[strange gale]

surely he's tried googling it

[random vault]

whats a google

i get all my info from discord

[jaunty vapor]

Tldr, you swap from energy shield while shield is up to another weapon in such a way, that when you swap BACK to shield, the shield bash damage happens every frame.

[scenic egret]

Okay the meathook finally works

Idk what happened before, i was just unable to finish her off because It won't lock on

[dusky hemlock]

The first bunch of times I tried fighting The Kahn Makyr I didn’t realize you had to blood punch her one you’ve meathooked her. (It was my first time playing through doom eternal so plz don’t judge)

I figured it out after a few tries.

It was kinda hard

[queen idol]

And i got back my balista

Finally

After kicking the doom hunter's butts is worth the work

[flint flame]

IT WAS SO FUCKING HARD

[azure oriole]

Mission 3 is harder

[burnt moss]

What difficulty?

[warped zenith]

hurt me plenty :(

[queen idol]

I'll take a break it feels rly good to play Doom eternal. Now im waiting my father complaint again to close his cyberpunk cutscene

[flint flame]

👍

[queen idol]

Better save before the cutscene, ouf. He never think twice to save so he went devil himself literally

[flat depot]

Hi, I'm new on the server👍

[queen idol]

Thank you

[queen idol]

Enjoy rip & tear

[flat depot]

🙂

[scenic egret]

I got into the Last level and the Game didn't even hesitated on throwing me two tyrants and a marauder at the same time

[burnt moss]

I found it hard on the same difficulty. I died on the last wave of the last level. Too many Archies

[ember void]

are you against the game becoming difficult?

[opal galleon]

😱

[scenic egret]

Not at all

[azure oriole]

Are you guys Christians?

[slow sigil]

Nope, why would i be

[scenic egret]

Kind of????

[azure oriole]

Nah better go rip and tear someone else

[scenic egret]

My family is Christian and i was baptized at 3yrs old but i don't really believe tbh

[slow sigil]

If you dont believe, you arent christian
Being baptized is just a needless ritual

[scenic egret]

They slapped me with holy Water that's all they did

[azure oriole]

Nah sorry

[scenic egret]

Also i know im' still playing on Hurt me Plenty, but i only died once to the marauder and It was because i was cornered with three pain elementals

Tried to use the BFG but the same time i shooted i died

And he just blocked It

[slow sigil]

Only at the end do you see it's a sword actually.

[fading lichen]

I forgot about that part

[burnt moss]

Oh and also the end of level 1 TAG 1

[fading lichen]

[queen idol]

Yes i noticed the end of TAG 2...

Cant afford buying the ancient gods and experience to fight a possessed Tyrant

[green stone]

doomguy is a chad

[fading lichen]

[distant hearth]

HI

Wtf

[queen idol]

All i can do is kicking duo marauder in super gore nest master level

[queen idol]

yes.

[distant hearth]

are you me or what

[queen idol]

We are all different Slayers m8

[distant hearth]

Oh, it's fine

[queen idol]

yes

[distant hearth]

Brutal doom is a good game?

[queen idol]

I have only played the 2016.

[distant hearth]

o ok

[queen idol]

I haven't played the ones old 1993. At least can experience via doom eternal in doomguy's pc

[distant hearth]

wow

[queen idol]

I remember doomguy's name

Flynn Taggart if im right.

[distant hearth]

but the violence games of the 90s are good

[queen idol]

I agree

[distant hearth]

it is my opinion

[queen idol]

But Doom has reached God tier fps games for me

Because you are the boss

[distant hearth]

You are very right

[queen idol]

And you feel like a GOD like the rage incarnation

[distant hearth]

[queen idol]

Doom makes you very determined and confident

Here's a gun, if it moves, kill it

[distant hearth]

ok bro

[queen idol]

Aaw it looks so cute

[distant hearth]

my life is very violent

[green stone]

Doom eternal moment

[distant hearth]

[queen idol]

I always hated demons.Well yeah there are some "good" but for the Slayer, 0 fuck given whatsoever.

rip & tear until it is done

[distant hearth]

I'm from South America but I speak English

[queen idol]

I see

o.o

[distant hearth]

but let's forget the past

[green stone]

Nightmare slayer

[distant hearth]

Did you know

[queen idol]

Mmh?

[queen idol]

?

[distant hearth]

bye i'm going to play doom

[queen idol]

Mostly Demons

[azure oriole]

or as i say heres a gun kill anything that moves

[queen idol]

Correct

[azure oriole]

:agony:

[queen idol]

#screenshots im honestly very suprised

I didn't expect to be rated 10/10

Well because you're the Doom Slayer

[still mason]

How does one make this jump? There doesn't seem to be anything to grab on to, like climbing walls or swing bars or anything, and I can't jump that far. There does seem to be a small ledge you can land on that's a little closer than where I'm standing, but even that seems rather far from possible ||https://imgur.com/a/acCdCaY|| (Spoiler as it's part of TAG 1. Also imgur link because I can't post images directly here)

[patent stream]

Fall to your right there should be a punch icon on a log

[still mason]

Oh I see it. Wow I was standing on the answer this entire time then XDD

[empty shore]

Hey guys

How are you all

[burnt moss]

I had the same issue

[hearty turtle]

Got to sentinel prime on UN, Scared of this fight

[burnt moss]

What’s your strategy?

[hearty turtle]

Killing Him

He's Dead Already

[hearty turtle]

aaand died to pain elemental trying to get three different glory kills for the challenge, why can their souls go through walls

[queen idol]

DooT eternal

[hearty turtle]

got all the way to taras nabad and died cause of a dumb mistake

[frigid kite]

DID SOMEONE SAY DOOM RIP AND TEAR SHOTGUN COME BROTHERS LET HELL TREMBLE BEFORE OUR MIGHT BFG DIVISION LOADS SHOTGUN WITH MALICIOUS INTENT GAME JOURNALISTS

[hearty turtle]

Nutshell

[queen idol]

cultured

I respect that.

[frigid kite]

Do you listen to generic boring heavy metal doom soundtrack like I do

[burnt moss]

I’m sorry

[queen idol]

If you want to know the answer.

I have 17 doom soundtracks playlist only for a god damn good workout

[frigid kite]

COOOOLLLLL!!!!!!!

Fact: We burned the bodies of the murdered children

[hearty turtle]

im assuming many of us know the pain of dying after getting so far

[queen idol]

[hearty turtle]

cause whos gonna be on the doom discord and not have attempted UN

[queen idol]

Yes i can feel that pain

The ultra nightmare difficulty IS the path of perpetual torment

[hearty turtle]

yes

i tried to use the secret encounter to farm pain elemental glory kills, it did not work too well in the end

[queen idol]

The overconfidence is to be practiced

Yes

[flint flame]

Eternal kinda boring

[burnt moss]

UNnecessary

[burnt moss]

I’ve done that. Yeah it’s hard to get glory kills on pain elementals

[dusk copper]

do you guys think i could do master levels if i can do all the stages of the escalation encounters in tag 2

[ivory ore]

Sure

[burnt moss]

You’re in the ballpark. You can probably try. WS ML or TN ML will give you an idea of if you’re ready. They’re the hardest.

[empty shore]

Hey everyone

[burnt moss]

Hola

[empty shore]

How's it going

[burnt moss]

Not bad you?

[empty shore]

Good

[dusk copper]

Thank you. I'll try them tomorrow

[stoic aspen]

Hello there

[mossy nova]

i like demons ui color

[stoic aspen]

Nice

[crimson ocean]

does take back do anything on un

also wow that spirited marauder fight in the slayer gate might've been the worst fight ever

literally survival horror

[stoic aspen]

Take back doesn’t do anything in UN, since you don’t gain extra lives in that mode

[crimson ocean]

funny

[mossy nova]

which was is better doom 2016 ssg or doom eternal ssg ?

[stoic aspen]

Eternal

[crimson ocean]

de ssg (funny hook)

[dim solar]

Super hooker shotgun

[mossy nova]

sounds sussy

[stoic aspen]

Meathook is essentially a game changer in my eyes

[mossy nova]

good with air controll

[stoic aspen]

Yeah

[crimson ocean]

troll

[mossy nova]

the fire belch is 1000 celsius

[azure oriole]

😱

[mossy nova]

idk i just read it on the codex

[azure oriole]

also i like how they buffed the lock on burst

like it just dissolves the dread/hell knight

they get instant staggered by it

[burnt moss]

General Midnobi

[mossy nova]

cyber tyrants are fun to shoot

[azure oriole]

tyrants are fun to erase with the cruicible

[stoic aspen]

?

[mossy nova]

no

[azure oriole]

he's actually a human(arc complex logs)

his suit protects him

[mossy nova]

just blessed by the seraphin

[azure oriole]

yeah

[mossy nova]

and i heard the preator suit was enchanted by a demon

[azure oriole]

wait what

[mossy nova]

lore vids

[azure oriole]

god lore is weird

is that how he can use berserk/quad damage/haste in 2016 without anything bad happening to him

[mossy nova]

doom guy isnt immune to fire because of the lava in exultiaa

[crimson ocean]

wait that who's a demon

[mossy nova]

a powerfulldemon

[azure oriole]

yeah

[crimson ocean]

who is fortile saying is a demon

[azure oriole]

the suit doomguy wears lol

[burnt moss]

Well perhaps the flame isn’t ignited right next to the suit

[azure oriole]

it was enchanted by a demon

[crimson ocean]

dr elena richardson said that the doom slayer is not a demon

[azure oriole]

yes

[mossy nova]

genes

[azure oriole]

plus its the same doomguy from classic doom(flashbacks)

lol

[crimson ocean]

i think they look into his eyes and then stop (they get their eyes blasted out of their skulls)

[azure oriole]

I think that doomguy's suit being enchanted by a demon is another reason why he fell unconsicus(idk how to spell it) after TAG2

[mossy nova]

doom guy has god blood

or mind soul blood link ?

[swift rivet]

Everytime i see the words Doom and Lore at the same sentence i just immediately think of WhoWouldWin Doomslayer threads

[azure oriole]

also game lore is GODDAMN CRAZY

[swift rivet]

Yeah and it might even become crazier

[azure oriole]

if another game releases

[mossy nova]

pls be another quake game or wolfenstein because im too broke to buy new doom games

[swift rivet]

I want another Wolfenstein game

Has to be one of if not the most underrated ID Software francise in my opinion

[azure oriole]

I just noticed that the cleaning robots push you

[burnt moss]

Why did he fall unconscious in TAG 2?

[azure oriole]

play it yourself

[mossy nova]

because the dark lord died

[azure oriole]

Techinically didn't cough cough Hayden give him his power

[mossy nova]

there not might be another doom game because of tag 1 and tag 2

[swift rivet]

I feel like the next Wolfenstien game is gonna hint at the next Doom game

[swift rivet]

Well not really

[azure oriole]

yeah

[swift rivet]

Theres still alot to discover in the Doom universe

[azure oriole]

There's still quite a lot to discover

[swift rivet]

It ends when Doomguy finally dies (He probably won't)

[azure oriole]

yeah

[swift rivet]

And if so theres a possibility of Doomguy Jr

[mossy nova]

how tho he doesnt have a wife hes wife is ded

[azure oriole]

(family picture in fortress of doom)

[mossy nova]

and also son

where

daughter ?

[azure oriole]

have you visited the toy collection in the fortress

[mossy nova]

yes

[azure oriole]

its there

[mossy nova]

what shelve

[azure oriole]

in somewhere in that room(also theres an old computer you can play doom 1 and doom 2)

[swift rivet]

Im going to finish the dlc on nightmare and try to 100% the main campagin

[azure oriole]

Its on one of the desks in that area

[mossy nova]

okay

[swift rivet]

And then the Ultra Nightmare grind begins

[candid jolt]

Which dlc

Ancient Gods part 1,2, or both

[swift rivet]

Both

[mossy nova]

air controll might have been buffed

[crimson ocean]

welp, base game and dlc 1 have been 100%'d
time to wait until tag 2 does on sale

oh wait i still have master levels

[flint flame]

Hugo said he wanted to make a game with a female lead. No news on if that’s coming out tho

[crimson ocean]

literally 1984

[nocturne lynx]

Good for you, you still have content to play.

[rustic rampart]

Just beat TAG 1 on UN for fun! Came here to brag cuz I have no friends

[nocturne lynx]

Your brag is unoriginal and shall be ignored. /half j

[sacred dirge]

If only you has a record or something

[still mason]

I just finished TAG 1, and... I'm not sure how to feel

[rustic rampart]

Exhausted

Adrenaline should have worn off

[still mason]

I also don't want to spoil anything but good lord that was... First Vega and then... myself????

Idk a lot of unexpecteds in there

[rustic rampart]

Indeed

[still mason]

And I still have TAG 2 👀

[mossy nova]

i like bfg gun

[rustic rampart]

Ooh boy that'll be fun

I wish I could play through for the first time again

[mossy nova]

do you know someone named "azura-_-"

[rustic rampart]

That daedric Lord from Skyrim?

Yeah he gives you the black star, it's OP

[still mason]

I appear to have also crashed the game

[rustic rampart]

No I do not know anyone with the username of "azura-_-"

[mossy nova]

okay thx

[still mason]

Either that or I ran out of Vram

[rustic rampart]

Why do you ask?

[mossy nova]

hes my old friend

[still mason]

Yeah.... I'm using 93% Vram, I think I just overfilled it and crashed out the game

[mossy nova]

i wished i had a laptop that doesnt lag

when playing doom eternal

[still mason]

See I have a 3080, it's just that I run the game at maximum settings, so it's basically always running at 80%+ Vram capacity and full power to keep up with my 144hz display. To be fair, even at max settings, it never drops below 144hz on D:E. Just shows how well optimized D:E is.

[idle cargo]

My god I literally died in one of the Blood Swamps Arenas because I got stuck in a Gargoyle

[still mason]

I think the reason it crashed is because I was going through the profile customizations, and there was backgrounds for the main menu, so I went to go look through them, and well... the first one attempted to load and the game froze. Sound still worked, and the game never showed an error or shut down, it just froze. So I think what happened is I just ran out of VRAM when it attempted to load the background scene

Not really a big deal, since I can restart the game and just not mess with the background, but still

[crimson ocean]

“Console UN Slayer” 🤨

[nocturne lynx]

Oh wtf I can't post external stickers.

[rustic rampart]

Forgot to mention I play on console too

[crimson ocean]

super vague and probably not a lot of answers available but any tips for un? like what weapon mods do i get, what weapon mod upgrades do i prioritize, what praetor suit unlocks do i prioritize, what general combat strats should i use, etc.

[rustic rampart]

Save 3 chainsaw pips in the first level to chainsaw heavy demons

Don't use the second mod bot, instead progress until you unlock fast travel at the end of the level and fast travel back and get the second mod for your heavy cannon

[crimson ocean]

yeah that second one makes sense

[rustic rampart]

Hmmm... What else...

Make sure you get your super shotgun mastered ASAP

practice levels before you attempt them on UN, I usually play through a level 3 times in a row without dying on nightmare before I attempt it on UN

[nocturne lynx]

Mods would be Stickies, PB, Heat Blast, Lock-On, both Ballista mods (Destroyer Blade for regular use and Ballista for Pain Elementals and Cacos), Shield.

[crimson ocean]

oh yeah what’s the deal with destroyer blade

when am i supposed to use it

[rustic rampart]

I never got the hang of it either

I never use ballista mods

[nocturne lynx]

When there's a good amount of enemies cuddled up while you're in the air.

If you don't use it in the air it's kinda shit tbh.

[crimson ocean]

so like when i would use a nade

[nocturne lynx]

Just use Frags for damage when you've got a Super Heavy, don't really use them outside just more damage.

[crimson ocean]

huh

what’s the ice bomb marauder cheese thing?

[nocturne lynx]

Patched long ago.

Frags can be used to comfortably two-cycle them though.

[crimson ocean]

also why do spirited marauders just not get staggered sometimes? i was doing the 2nd tag 1 gate and i hit a spirited marauder with what i assume was every pellet of the ssg and he didn’t get staggered, just wooped my ass

[rustic rampart]

Good question

[nocturne lynx]

https://tenor.com/view/bugs-bug-insects-cockroaches-music-gif-5045519

[crimson ocean]

that spirited marauder fight was seriously just asinine

felt like a survival horror game, but on the jankiness tier of an early resident evil game

[rustic rampart]

Am I the only one who enjoyed that fight?

[crimson ocean]

maybe

i wasn’t even on nightmare and it still took at least 5 tries

[rustic rampart]

Dang

I need a life

[crimson ocean]

just bc mf would not get staggered sometimes and would jumpscare me like a literal horror hame, dude would deadass just disappear and then pop up right in front of my face

[rustic rampart]

I did it 1st try on nightmare

Don't ask how

[lime pulsar]

hey so I have the stupid freezing issue, any1 know a fix?

[nocturne lynx]

Even now I've died at that Gate a couple times.

[rustic rampart]

Its probably obvious by now that I do nothing but play doom all day

Any normal human would die at that gate at least a dew times

[sonic lion]

arbalest + 2 frags + 2 lock ons = devistated marauder

[peak spade]

Doom eternal is fun

I like chainsawing demons in half

It’s very nice.

[rustic rampart]

Agreed

[peak spade]

Anyway

Back to ripping and tearing. Until it is done.

[queen idol]

It's just sad we cant use the crucible indefinitely like before

Used to have fun slicing demons

Wooshwoosh cut like butter

[swift rivet]

Trial of Maligog sucks

[azure oriole]

why

[swift rivet]

The last phase

[opal galleon]

Just aim

[burnt moss]

I did.

[burnt moss]

Ok but why did that cause me to fall unconscious? Everyone he created didn’t collapse so why me?

[burnt moss]

Try not fucking the gargoyles next time

[swift rivet]

I just tried to hit the box

And it decided to switch to the hell knight

[raw prism]

Has anyone from id ever confirmed what were those coins the Slayer tossed whenever he kills a Hell Priest?

[swift rivet]

The Sentinel armor randomly activated

I don't know if i missclicked it or what since if i remember i pressed the Load Checkpoint button instead

[crimson ocean]

afaik it’s a token of proof that a priest’s soul that previously resided in a guardian (like the gladiator) has been unlinked from the guardian, thereby allowing the priest to be killed

[swift rivet]

I tried to reload the fight and i still had the sentinel armor

Finished the fight anyway so i can finish Blood Swamps

[crimson ocean]

if it makes you feel better there’s an option to turn off sentinel armor

[swift rivet]

Ok thanks

[burnt moss]

In case you go re-do the battle, I use dblade a lot for those respawning demons

Just beat Reclaimed Earth UV. Not too bad. First battle actually kept two of my extra lives; rest of the level was pretty straightforward. Pretty scenery too.

[swift rivet]

Im redoing it in my next run

[ivory ore]

Your mother

[crimson ocean]

yeah

[flint flame]

🥱🛌

[mossy nova]

crusible is fun

[flint flame]

😴

[crimson ocean]

crucible has no reason to exist outside of final boss power trip and lore

[frail violet]

from what i know, just like in doom 2016 he went back to sleep since their wasn't any demonic forces anymore so he would only wake up if there is another demonic invasion

[strange gale]

year 1 setups

[crimson ocean]

yay deathless master cultist base

[mossy nova]

i like air controll

[crimson ocean]

yeah that's generally the best rune

why is the master arc complex description different from all the other master level descriptions

[opal galleon]

Arc ML came out on release day

[crimson ocean]

ah so they weren't made in order

[wind barn]

For the longest time I thought Micro Missiles were one of those masteries you wanted to complete as soon as possible so it wouldn't be harder later.

I then proceeded to master the mod in a single combat encounter in Mars Core.

[crimson ocean]

do you guys do gates on un when you aren’t going for 100%?

ig i should ask would you recommend that i do them, considering that it’s my first attempts

also is there a mod/console command for getting rid of the opening monologue bc i don’t wanna sit through that every time i lose an un attempt

[icy ice]

The Dark Lord final boss fight in TAG2 was annoying but glad it's over

[tender pendant]

It was awful

[burnt moss]

I swear my weapon swapping and firing started delaying during the last level of Horde mode. So frustrating.

[tender pendant]

Not to mention the execution of the lore :\

The problem with the Dark Lord fight is that it barely played on the skill set you had developed over the DLC or the base game- it was just a horrible Gladiator battle

[flint flame]

You’ll want the weapon points it gives, I’d say do the first two and after that do them if you’re bored

[burnt moss]

I agree!

[flint flame]

Marauder battle*

[burnt moss]

Hey what are the rewards for the season leaderboard on Horde Mode? It says “rewards shown below” and then it’s just different colored bars

[flint flame]

Like it’s just a stretched out marauder encounter

[flint flame]

Those are titles

You see them in the main menu

They show underneath your name and have different colors

[burnt moss]

But they aren’t awarded until the end of the season

[flint flame]

Yes

You get them as soon as the next season starts and if you’re within the cutoff for the tier

[burnt moss]

They don’t look like titles. The top one is a group of purple icons overlapping in a bar

[flint flame]

Horde titles have the arrow things, don’t worry about those

[burnt moss]

But if it was a title I’d be able to see what the title is, I’d think?

[flint flame]

It’s a title card

Have you never unlocked a title card?

For the horde ones it’ll say something like “Horde Mode <Difficulty> Rank …” or something like that

[burnt moss]

I have. Title cards have a title. Like my current title card is “Lord Slayer” and it says so right on the title

Standing up close to my TV I can see the arrows you’re talking about. But no title.

[lapis saddle]

You know how Horde Mode shows you how many waves an encounter has on the HUD in addition to marking the current wave? I wish campaign and TAG also did that so I could grok my progress in a fight

[burnt moss]

I just wish TAG had a corruption meter at least

[lapis saddle]

Even that would be something, but when a fight has 5 waves but doesn’t tell me how many, I start to feel tired and frustrated that the same fight is still going.

I love how retro FPS games tend to show you how many monsters are in a level and how many of them are dead because it means I can gauge my progress through the level and it kinda confirms for me that I’m getting closer to the goal

[jaunty vapor]

This x 1000

[crimson ocean]

is there a mod/console command for getting rid of the opening monologue bc i don’t wanna sit through that every time i lose an un attempt

[ocean bramble]

Of all the UN attempts that were lost
We send to beat it
Only you

Trial and error

But now there’s an ant band

[mossy nova]

how

[dim solar]

Just came back from having a lot of fun fighting the dark lord

[mossy nova]

how do i change weapon fov without cheat engine

[slow sigil]

you open the console

and type in the right command

[mossy nova]

what command

[azure oriole]

🤤

[ember void]

Hands_fovscale x

That's it I think.

[mossy nova]

its not working

[ember void]

The x is supposed to be where you put the number. Replace the x with 1. for example: hands_fovscale 1

If this does not work, they've probably changed something.

[mossy nova]

ohh okay

[hushed garden]

so t rue

[mossy nova]

what is the next doom game ?

[slow sigil]

doom

[acoustic lark]

What was the go-to combo to get a pain elemental into glory kill state?

[fathom wadi]

i just use the ballista

[acoustic lark]

yeah, 4 normal ballista shots did the trick, thanks

[fathom wadi]

np mate

[brittle quest]

Two arbalets do the job, PB sticky Ball Pb Sticky Bal will also GK, a PB and three BATs bal is probably optimal.

[random vault]

Doom 5: the next one

[strange gale]

PB and three BATs bal is probably optimal.
remove the pb shot, if you just do the bat from hc into three ballista pcancels, then this is optimal speed and ease of execution wise

[strange gale]

ammo efficiency wise this and double arba suck, but regular bal shots are significantly harder to miss since they're hitscan so overall you'll end up spending much less ammo long term because you're not missing arba shots

[strange gale]

this is also really good in the air

bal shots go through lost souls so there's no risk of losing damage to bodyblocking

n it's much easier to hit this consistently, regardless of situation, but the one thing to watch out for is unintentionally spending bp

[primal kelp]

If you are looking for a french Doom eternal server DM me

[strange gale]

could also do pb-sb-pb(pcancel) pb BAT bal(pcancel x 2) or pb-sb-pb BAT bal(pcancel x 2) BAT pb(pcancel), in the 2nd combo you can just leave the last pb out so that you'll have a free health + bp + dash refill floating around

for bp loops you can do meathook-pb-bp pb BAT bal(pcancel x 2) or meathook-pb-bp BAT bal(pcancel x 2) and then do the last pb shot for the stagger whenever you want

pb BAT bal(pcancel x 2) BAT meathook-pb-bp is a cool variation

you can get the stagger without the 2nd pb if the first one is a crit, but that's too specific for doom so i wouldn't really go for it

it's consistent enough that going for it doesn't hurt you, but i still wouldn't

Doom slayer is not Link.

[crimson ocean]

mod or console cmd?

and is there a tutorial for installing mods on this server

[lapis saddle]

His name is “the Doom Slayer.” Whoever he was before that doesn’t really matter anymore

[crimson ocean]

his name is John “Doom” Slayer (formerly John “Doom” Guy)

[lapis saddle]

Flynn Taggart

[jaunty vapor]

Did you happen to check in #eternal-modding ?

[crimson ocean]

nope, i’m blind
thanks

[queen idol]

That's how i guessed the password to unlock the doom 2

There are many many theories

[sonic lion]

Im pretty sure it was confirmed at one point that the doom slayer's name was flynn taggart

[queen idol]

That's what i thought so

But I'm sure the devs didnt confirms

Its confusing

[azure oriole]

That's his name in the novels, which are a different continuity.
